Norwegian soccer decides on using VAR technology in the future.

Most of the top soccer clubs in Norway voted to remove VAR. However, the leaders of Norwegian soccer want to keep VAR even though many people disagree.

This weekend, all the soccer clubs in Norway will vote on whether to keep or remove VAR. Some people worry that many clubs will vote to keep VAR just to agree with the leaders.
